Ash By Elegance may not be finished appearing for WWE as the TNA star has her sights set on the 2025 Women's Royal Rumble match.

Ash, who competed for years in WWE as Dana Brooke, was part of last weekend's NXT Battleground event. During the NXT Women's Championship match between Roxanne Perez and Jordynne Grace, both Ash and Tatum Paxley tried to steal Grace's TNA Knockouts World Championship. Grace fended both women off but the distraction allowed for Perez to hit Pop Rox for the win.

Before her release from WWE in 2023, Ash By Elegance had competed in every Women's Royal Rumble to date. Appearing on the Battleground Podcast, the Elegant wrestler shared her disappointment that this streak has since been broken.

"Up until 2024, I was one of the very few, I think I was one of three or four, that had been in every single Royal Rumble. So it took a hit on my heart when I wasn't part of this last one."

Given WWE NXT's recent collab with TNA, Ash isn't giving up on the idea of returning to the Women's Royal Rumble match despite her release from the company.

"I love the idea of that... I think and I truly believe coming into 2025, being able to enter the Royal Rumble with the TNA Knockout Women's Title around my waist would be a huge accomplishment and every aspect of my life."


TNA Wrestlers have competed in the Women's Royal Rumble in the past. This year's 30-woman contest saw Jordynne Grace compete. In 2022, Mickie James (then the IMPACT Wrestling Knockouts World Champion) made her presence felt in the match that'd be won by the returning Ronda Rousey.

Whether Ash joins James and Grace remains to be seen, but in WWE's new era of mutual collaboration, we know not to count her out.
